Description

"I ponder this: For a lady and drive her to the side, how can she act?" The query is presented by Jean, a shooter, who comes on Smuttynose Island, off the coast of New Hampshire, to analyze a hundred years-old offense. Precarious emotional territory is entered by Jean herself -- as she immerses herself in the facts of the situation--an episode of enthusiasm that led to the deaths of two girls. The feeling that her husband is having an event burgeons into mistrust and envy, and eventually activates Jean towards the brink of actions she'd as yet not known himself effective at--actions with terrible consequences. Everywhere praised because of its energy and elegance, We are taken by The Weight of Water on an unforgettable trip through the farthest extremes of feeling.
